Trump berates Zelensky, the leader of a democratic country courageously fighting Russian imperialism, while he allies himself with Putin, a dictator who started the bloodiest European war in 80 years. Sorry, President Trump. We believe in democracy, not authoritarianism.

If Elon Musk, the richest man in the world, can arbitrarily fire hundreds of thousands of federal employees without cause, think of what he’ll do to workers in the private sector. Today, it’s federal workers. Tomorrow, it’s *your* job. That’s what oligarchy is about.

Elon Musk is wrong. The main function of the H-1B visa program is not to hire “the best and the brightest,” but rather to replace good-paying American jobs with low-wage indentured servants from abroad. The cheaper the labor they hire, the more money the billionaires make.
